Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that occurs when the body cannot properly regulate blood sugar (glucose) levels. In astrology, every disease has a planetary connection, and diabetes is no exception. Let’s explore diabetes from an astrological perspective, including its causes, planetary influences, zodiac signs prone to it, triggering planetary transits and dashas, and astrological remedies.
1. Astrological Causes of Diabetes
Several planetary afflictions and combinations in the natal chart can indicate a tendency toward diabetes. The primary astrological reasons for diabetes are:
- Affliction to Jupiter – Jupiter governs the pancreas, liver, and endocrine system, playing a crucial role in insulin production. A weak, afflicted, or malefic Jupiter often results in diabetes.
- Venus-Moon Weakness – Venus represents sugar, luxury, and indulgence. Moon governs fluids in the body. If Venus or Moon is afflicted or is in debilitated (weak ) sign, it increases the likelihood of diabetes due to improper sugar metabolism.
- Mars-Saturn Connection – Mars controls blood circulation and energy levels, while Saturn rules chronic diseases. Their conjunction or mutual aspect often leads to long-term metabolic disorders like diabetes.
- 6th, 8th, and 12th House Afflictions – The 6th house governs diseases, the 8th house represents chronic ailments, and the 12th house is related to hospitalization. Afflictions to these houses can trigger diabetes.
- Ketu’s Influence on the Lagna or 6th House – Ketu signifies detachment and weaknesses in the body’s immune system. If Ketu is positioned in the Lagna or 6th house, it can indicate a predisposition to diabetes.
- Saturn in the 1st, 6th, 8th, or 12th House – A strong Saturn in these houses can cause sluggish metabolism, leading to diabetes.
- Weak or Debilitated Sun – The Sun represents vitality and digestion. If weak or afflicted, it may cause insulin resistance and improper glucose metabolism.
2. Planetary Connections to Diabetes
Each planet is associated with different aspects of diabetes:
Jupiter : Governs pancreas and insulin, its affliction weakens sugar metabolism.
Venus : Represents sweet cravings and indulgence, its affliction leads to excessive sugar consumption.
Moon : Controls body fluids, afflicted Moon disturbs glucose
regulation.
Mars : Represents metabolism and energy, if weak it slows sugar breakdown.
Saturn : Governs chronic diseases, its affliction leads to long-term diabetic complications.
Ketu : Indicates autoimmune and metabolic disorders; causes instability in sugar regulation.
Sun : Controls vitality and digestion, weak Sun leads to insulin resistance.
3. Zodiac Signs Prone to Diabetes
Certain zodiac signs are more susceptible to diabetes due to their inherent nature and ruling planets:
- Taurus – Ruled by Venus, Taurus individuals love sweets and luxury, making them prone to diabetes.
- Cancer – Ruled by the Moon, Cancer natives are emotionally sensitive and prone to stress-related eating, leading to diabetes.
- Libra – Another Venus-ruled sign, Libra enjoys rich foods, which can contribute to diabetes.
- Sagittarius – Ruled by Jupiter, which governs the liver and pancreas. If Jupiter is weak or afflicted, Sagittarians can suffer from diabetes.
- Capricorn – Governed by Saturn, Capricorn is prone to chronic health conditions, including diabetes.
- Pisces – Also ruled by Jupiter, Pisces individuals have a tendency for weak metabolism and sluggish digestion, increasing their risk of diabetes.
4. Planetary Transits and Dashas That trigger Diabetes
Certain planetary transits and dashas (major planetary periods) can activate diabetes in a person’s life:
Jupiter Dasha or Antardasha (sub-period) with Malefic Influence – If Jupiter is weak or afflicted, a person might develop diabetes during its period.
Saturn-Mars Conjunction or Transit – This combination can lead to long-term complications like diabetic neuropathy.
Venus-Moon Afflictions in Dasha or Transit – Can lead to increased sugar intake and blood sugar fluctuations.
Ketu Mahadasha or Antardasha – Increases the risk of autoimmune and metabolic disorders.
Rahu-Ketu Transit Over the 6th House – Can suddenly trigger diabetes due to unhealthy habits or stress.
Saturn’s Transit Over the Natal Sun or Moon – Leads to sluggish metabolism and poor digestion, worsening diabetic conditions.
5. Role of venus in case of Diabetes
Venus in a suitable position plays a crucial role in protecting an individual from diabetes because Venus governs sugar metabolism, body fluids, indulgences, and the reproductive system. When well-placed, Venus helps maintain hormonal balance, proper digestion, and metabolic efficiency, reducing the risk of diabetes. Let’s explore in detail how a strong Venus contributes to diabetes protection:
Venus and Sugar Metabolism
Venus is directly linked to glucose regulation and sugar cravings. A well-placed Venus ensures:
Balanced sugar metabolism – Preventing insulin resistance.
Healthy lifestyle choices – Preventing overindulgence in sweets and rich foods.
Emotional stability – Preventing stress-related eating, which can lead to diabetes.
On the other hand, an afflicted Venus causes excessive sugar cravings, leading to obesity and metabolic disorders like diabetes.
Venus and Hormonal Balance
Venus governs the endocrine system, which regulates hormones related to metabolism and blood sugar levels.
- A strong Venus promotes healthy insulin production and pancreatic function.
- A weak Venus can disrupt hormonal regulation, leading to fluctuations in blood sugar and possible diabetes.
Venus and Fluid Balance in the Body
Diabetes often leads to dehydration and excessive urination. The Moon and Venus together regulate bodily fluids. A strong Venus ensures fluid retention is optimal, preventing excessive dehydration. Weak Venus leads to loss of essential minerals, which worsens diabetic conditions.
Venus and the 6th House (Diseases)
- If Venus is well-placed (Exalted in Pisces, Strong in Taurus/Libra), it can protect against diseases of indulgence and excess, like diabetes.
- If Venus is afflicted in the 6th, 8th, or 12th house, or conjunct with malefic planets like Saturn, Rahu, or Ketu, it can lead to chronic sugar-related health issues.
6. Venus in Favorable Signs and Houses for Diabetes Protection
A well-placed Venus acts as a shield against diabetes. The best positions include:
Best Signs for Venus (Strong Positioning)
Venus in Pisces (Exalted) – Brings excellent sugar metabolism and emotional balance, preventing overindulgence.
Venus in Taurus/Libra (Own Signs) – Supports a healthy lifestyle and balanced insulin production.
Best Houses for Venus
1st House (Lagna) – Gives a natural resistance to metabolic disorders.
5th House – Promotes digestive and hormonal balance.
9th House – Gives a strong immune system and prevents chronic diseases.
11th House – Supports good metabolism and prevents overconsumption of unhealthy food.
7. How a Weak or Malefic Venus Leads to Diabetes
If Venus is debilitated in Virgo, afflicted by malefics (Saturn, Rahu, Ketu), or placed in a bad house (6th, 8th, or 12th), the following issues may arise:
▪︎Excessive sugar cravings and addiction to sweets.
▪︎Poor hormonal regulation, leading to insulin resistance.
▪︎Weakened kidneys and urinary issues, common in diabetics.
▪︎Emotional eating disorders, increasing diabetes risk.
8. Astrological Remedies for Diabetes
While astrology can indicate predispositions, remedies can help mitigate their effects. It is always important to identify first which planetary alignment is actually playing the hidden role and then doing the proper remedy of it.
Strengthen Venus
- Chant “Om Shukraya Namah” 108 times daily.

- Keep a rose quartz crystal near your bed to balance Venus energy.
A strong and well-placed Venus ensures good sugar metabolism, emotional balance, and healthy lifestyle habits, protecting an individual from diabetes. If Venus is weak or afflicted, it can lead to sugar cravings, metabolic issues, and insulin resistance, increasing diabetes risk. Strengthening Venus through mantras, gemstones, and lifestyle changes can help maintain good health and prevent diabetes.
